Classic Fabricators
Addon for IC2 Classic & Buildcraft that adds a lava and oil fabricator
About this Mod
Adds two blocks to the game, a lava and oil fabricator. Each fabricator takes in energy(EU) as input, which it then uses to make one of the two fluids(lava or oil), this is then stored inside it's internal tank, ready to output to any connected fluid input (pipe/tank)
Lava Fabricator takes in 50EU for 1mB of lava
Oil Fabricator takes in 250EU for 1mB of oil
This mod was made as there were no lava or oil fabricators, or anything similar to what was in tekkit classic, in the tekkit 2 modpack. This mod could very much be seen as a porting of the two fabricator machines from the powerconverts mod found in tekkit classic to 1.12.2.
The few changes I made were:
Given the fabricators internal tanks of 32,000mB (configurable), as the original crafting recipe included two tanks in it
Added a config option for outputting to any connected input I.E pipe/tank (enabled by default)
Made the fabricators HV machines, the same as the mass fabricator it uses in it's crafting recipe. They will expload if powered with higher than HV electricity
Changed oil EU cost from 50EU to 250EU due to IC2 Classic's Liquid Fuel Generator
This mod requires IC2 Classic, at least BuildCraft|Energy from BuildCraft (BC remastered is prefered), and forge version 1.12.2 - 14.23.5.2859 or greater
